As I see it, a much better facility for teaching is Finale Reader 2010, a free download from www.finalemusic.com/reader which allows you to view, play back and print Finale 2010 documents. This means that you can email students their assignments, or host them on a college intranet, and they can work on them at home (or anywhere else) if they wish. Orchestra and band parts could also be usefully distributed to all and sundry in this way (assuming no copyright restrictions), banishing in perpetuity that tired 'I lost the music' excuse!
Finale 2004 Crack
Where were you on the evening of May 14th, 1998? That's the night one of the most-anticipated TV series finale aired... and Jerry, Elaine, George, and Kramer entered into an eternity of syndication. Did you know...
While killing time in Latham, waiting for the plane to be repaired, they witness an overweight man, Howie, getting carjacked at gunpoint. Instead of helping him, they crack jokes about his size while Kramer films it all on his camcorder, then they proceed to walk away. The victim notices this, and tells the reporting officer. The four main characters are then taken into custody for violating the Good Samaritan law that requires bystanders to help out in such a situation.
The final Seinfeld was criticized by many for being vindictive towards the main characters - who are shown to be amoral, selfish misanthropes - and, by extension, towards the audience who tuned in to watch them every week. Entertainment Weekly writer Ken Tucker seemed to echo the majority sentiment in declaring the episode "off-key and bloated...Ultimately, Seinfeld and David's kiss-off to their fans was a loud, hearty 'So long, suckers!'" Other people valued it for the perceived in-joke of the four characters being convicted and imprisoned on the charge that they did nothing, a play on the "show about nothing" mantra. One way or another, the 1998 episode made TV history as the third most-watched finale of a American TV series ever, behind only M*A*S*H ("Goodbye, Farewell and Amen") on CBS in 1983, and Cheers ("One for the Road") on NBC in 1993, in front of Friends ("The Last One") and Frasier ("Goodnight, Seattle") both aired on NBC in 2004, and Everybody Loves Raymond ("The Finale") on CBS in 2005.
"The Cassini operations team did an absolutely stellar job guiding the spacecraft to its noble end," said Earl Maize, Cassini project manager at JPL. "From designing the trajectory seven years ago, to navigating through the 22 nail-biting plunges between Saturn and its rings, this is a crack shot group of scientists and engineers that scripted a fitting end to a great mission. What a way to go. Truly a blaze of glory."
